All pharmacies in England, Scotland and Wales are regulated by the General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC). An NHS authorised pharmacy will have a verified pharmacy logo with their registration number displayed (see Phlo Digital Pharmacy’s number below). All pharmacies must meet these strict standards and processes demonstrating they can safeguard patients before being allowed to operate.
If you click on the registered pharmacy button it will direct you the GPhC’s website showing the relevant pharmacy details. Phlo (an online digital pharmacy) also recommends searching directly on the GPhC’s website as some websites could take you to pages that mimic the GPhC’s website.
Pharmacies that sell medication online must also have a licence with the Medicines & Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) that provides a registered pharmacy with a licence to sell certain medication through their website. A pharmacy with such a licence will also display this on their website:
Above is Phlo’s verification logo that takes you to the MHRA website where you can see what type of medication a particular pharmacy is authorised to sell online.
You should easily be able to find the premises address and contact details should you wish to speak to the pharmacy. The address given should match the pharmacy details provided on the GPhC website.
Scroll to the bottom of this page and you can see the details for Phlo Digital Pharmacy.
A superintendent pharmacist is responsible for the provision of a safe pharmacy service and ensuring regulatory compliance. Digital or online pharmacies need to provide details of the superintendent pharmacist on their website including their registration number, this can be double checked on the GPhC website.
